On May 14 from 10a to 4p central time, the All Saints board will be hosting a work day at the camp to spruce things up on the inside and outside to get ready for our summer camp this year. We'll also be conducting a service of blessing for our new labyrinth and boathouse. We'll get started at 10:00a central with the blessings and then have time to get to work on projects. If you'd prefer not to be involved in a project, please come to the labyrinth/boathouse blessings and then take a tour of the center and get a bit of lunch. We'd just love to have you come to All Saints! Please RSVP your attendance Friday night and/or lunch on Saturday with All Saints director, Bill Beam at either 502-727-1883 or bill@allsaintscenter.org.
